The 80\90 Audis have VAG 1551 connector on fuel pump,BUT not work in VAG
1551 in Rapid Data Transfer mode.The VAG 1551 have two mode 1.Rapid Data
Transfer and 2. Blink output codes.The first one, only work on car since
1990 Audi&VW.Rapid Data Transfer show the parameter and component that
work in "real word".The Blink output code ONLY show the component
affected or that "fail" in the diagnosis.The Blink output code don't
show the parameter like: engine coolant temperature,timing,intake
temp,etc.
